Jet Propelled Assisted Dying.

If anbody reading this knows Benjamin Netanyahu could you ask him when the Zionist death cult is going to stop? Why? Because we in the West want a guilt free Christmas. Don't forget that God's emissary to the UK Cardinal Vinnie Nichols has imbued the assisted dying debate with his religion's guilt

He said changing the law could result in those who are near to death feeling under pressure to end their lives to relieve family members of a “perceived burden of care”, to avoid pain or “for the sake of inheritance”.

The archbishop of Westminster continued: “The suffering of a human being is not meaningless. It does not destroy that dignity. It is an intrinsic part of our human journey, a journey embraced by the eternal word of God, Christ Jesus himself. He brings our humanity to its full glory precisely through the gateway of suffering and death.”

I write this blog post as someone whose own mother pleaded with me to fetch a gun and put her out of her misery. I made a joke of it as I always do and I said "Mam, if it was legal I would". I'm writing this in the very room that she died and a photograph of her as a nurse in the fledgling National Health Service is looking down on me as I do.  

She nursed Sir Frank Whittle after he was knighted by George VI in 1948. A statue of whome I came across on my visit to Coventry recently.

She had long been an advocate of assisted dying long before her own death in extreme agony in 2021 and she had made it clear that she wanted to go to Switzerland if an agonising death became likely for her. She was in an orthopaedic bed that required electricity to keep the mattress pumped up and we were told that when it was installed that it would cost pennies to run. Instead it cost thousands when we received the bill from the Utility Company after Mam died.

It wasn't the cost but the ignominy and agony in which my mother died. On the Wednesday before she died there was a power cut and in darkness her cries of anguish and pain became louder as the orthopaedic bed sank lower and lower underneath her until it became flat. The nursing team looked on, as helpless, as we all are when we watch the daily grizly footage from Gaza and Lebanon. 

It took an hour an a half for a generator to come out from Scottish Power and in that time 'Dr Death' had been called for from the local hospital to administer the fateful dose. A dose which put Mam out of her agony but which took 3 days with the aid of a syringe driver to kill her off on the following Saturday Morning. 

Every time I have to pay a utility bill now I wince because these people are never there when you need them but when it comes to paying your bill the bailiff will be shouting through your letterbox before you've had time to check your bank balance.

I would like to see Cardinal Vinnie Nichols in a boxing ring with Dame Esther Rantzen and I hope that Esther Rantzen punches him so hard that he sees bluebirds and the pearly gates and the faces of the people who can't wait to pounce on his inheritance.

The inheritance of religion as we can see from Palestine and Lebanon is inhumanity.  

As Dame Esther used to say "That's Life" but what about a dignified death?
